So do you take the time to register your software or hardware?
I rarely do. Usually I don't. Too much of a hassle and who needs the extra junk mail?
Occasionally I'll do it but not very often....
How about you?

I do for either if I think I'm going to need support sometime in the future. For most consumer electronics I don't because it's mostly throw-away stuff anyway. For software it depends on the company, how much I paid for it, or if it's required to get an activation key.

(o) Sometimes for software
Well, I didn't think that far back, but so far as I can recall, I only registered one product, and that the Pinnacle PCTV Pro stick. I don't get much junk mail from Pinnacle -- thanks GOD. But, they do send me something at least once or twice a month which is perfectly acceptable to me. And on occasion I actually do read some of them .. for their efforts, you know. Oh well.
Yeah, most of my long-term products (without putting much thinking power to it) are:
ATI
Hauppauge
Pinnacle
freeware
develope-ware, because I do code some of my own stuff, in pascal.

I choose no for both because I don't want to receive junk mails and other commercial promotions.
I don't thrust them, even if I check the box telling I don't want my personal data to be shared with partners. -
Rarely. Mostly only for small apps, or for certain media products (Adobe, being the main one).
